One Cent. DAILY -NORWALKFGAZETTE One Cent. , NonwnanAznm. Absolutely Independent. gili‘fiWEDNESDAY, MAY 13, 1891. Russia all Right. From the very beginning of the exceedingly exciting controversy be- tween England and the United States respecting the Behring sea claims it has been a most serious query with many who have closely and thougha fully followed the devious course of the dispute as to what might be the ultim-l ate attitude and action of the Russian government, from whom the United, States derived original rights in Behra ing sea. 3 Quite a number of prominent diplo: mats have indulged and expressed an, enduring confidence in the fidelity of the Russian government to the terms . of the final negotiations which resulted in the purchase by the United States from that government of the very rights in Alaskan waters which form the basis of the tedious dispute now and long since existing between this country and Great Britain. . According to late dispatches Russia does not propOse to stand silently by and see the English government claim certain rights in Behring sea, as against the United States, involving the very rights and interests which she proposed to deliver to the United States for the consideration price paid. This sentiment is so general and in- tense among the Russian people that the Moscow Gazette, in its last issue, indulges in a most indignant protest against the English and American press for ignoring Russia’s important rela- tion with the Behring sea matter. It moreover clearly intimates that any settlement not in harmony with the original rights claimed by Russia, and sold by that government to the United States, would be considered as worth- less. , The Gazette plainly takes its stand by the United States in the controversy and indeed. distinctly places there the sympathy of the entire Russian govern- ment. It most significantly says that “it is time England was taught that the pos- session of an all-powerful fleet does not entitle her to treat every bit of open sea as her peculiar property.” The Gazette concludes by suggesting the propriety of America and Russia set- tling the question without any reference to England’s claims. Whatever else this may signify it most conclusively expresses the deter- mination of Russia to protect the United States in the possession of those rights in the Behring sea which became the exclusive property of the United States by purchase from that govern- ment. ---~Ioo Presented with a.
